Editorial Reviews

Helps Christians examine and appreciate what the writers of an earlier time, many of whom have been canonized by the tradition of the church, had to say about the seven Catholic, or General, Epistles. Entries on writings overview patristic comments, provide specific comments on specific passages, and give information on title of the patristic work and the textual reference. This work is part of a 27-volume series offering contemporary readers an opportunity to study for themselves the key writings of the early church fathers. Bray teaches Anglican studies at Beeson Divinity School, Samford University. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
